"Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Xen hypervisor.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the
following problems :

CVE-2014-3672 (XSA-180)

Andrew Sorensen discovered that a HVM domain can exhaust the hosts
disk space by filling up the log file.

CVE-2016-3158, CVE-2016-3159 (XSA-172)

Jan Beulich from SUSE discovered that Xen does not properly handle
writes to the hardware FSW.ES bit when running on AMD64 processors. A
malicious domain can take advantage of this flaw to obtain address
space usage and timing information, about another domain, at a fairly
low rate.

CVE-2016-3710 (XSA-179)

Wei Xiao and Qinghao Tang of 360.cn Inc discovered an out-of-bounds
read and write flaw in the QEMU VGA module. A privileged guest user
could use this flaw to execute arbitrary code on the host with the
privileges of the hosting QEMU process.

CVE-2016-3712 (XSA-179)

Zuozhi Fzz of Alibaba Inc discovered potential integer overflow or
out-of-bounds read access issues in the QEMU VGA module. A privileged
guest user could use this flaw to mount a denial of service (QEMU
process crash).

CVE-2016-3960 (XSA-173)

Ling Liu and Yihan Lian of the Cloud Security Team, Qihoo 360
discovered an integer overflow in the x86 shadow pagetable code. A HVM
guest using shadow pagetables can cause the host to crash. A PV guest
using shadow pagetables (i.e. being migrated) with PV superpages
enabled (which is not the default) can crash the host, or corrupt
hypervisor memory, potentially leading to privilege escalation.

CVE-2016-4480 (XSA-176)

Jan Beulich discovered that incorrect page table handling could result
in privilege escalation inside a Xen guest instance.

CVE-2016-6258 (XSA-182)

Jérémie Boutoille discovered that incorrect pagetable
handling in PV instances could result in guest to host privilege
escalation.

Additionally this Xen Security Advisory without a CVE was fixed :

XSA-166

Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk and Jan Beulich discovered that ioreq handling
is possibly susceptible to a multiple read issue.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version
4.1.6.lts1-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your xen packages.

introducing additional issues."
